"In April of 1934 Don Wilson was added to the program and Don was Jack's announcer all the way up to the end of the TV show in 1965. He was a target of Jack's jokes mostly about his weight even though he was never really overweight." Wha...??? have you SEEN Don WIlson? he was morbidly obese... anyway, big fan of the show. Thank you
